Brief synopsis
Returning to the beaches which have been part of her life, Varda invents a kind of self-portrait-documentary. Agnès stages herself among excerpts of her films,images and reportages.
She shares with humor and emotion her beginnings as stage photographer, then as early filmmaker of the French New Wave, her life with Jacques Demy, her feminism, her trips to Cuba, China, and the USA, her life as independant producer and her family life.
